The design used lighter colors, and the girls were taller, slimmer, and had "girlier" faces. There were commercials and plenty of merchandise, but it must not have been very popular because this troper can't find much proof of it's existence on the internet.

Sitting in a black and white jail was better for him, because if he happened to become a mime while in there, he wouldn't scare any one, and his powers would be ineffective.
**** Perhaps because we had no way of knowing if that were true? The only thing shown is an innocent man mutated by an accident and fixed by the power of love. After we see that he's all right now, the girls immediately pulverize him and toss him in jail. I know that courtroom procedures are dull for a fifteen minute children's show, but his suffering came off as extreme punishment for something completely out of his control. That can work for darker shows like Batman: The Animated Series (the schizo guy who controlled/was controlled by his puppet is an example), but for something that just came down from singing "Love makes the World Go Round"? Not so much.
*** To make matters worse: all he did was make everything black and white!
**** He, um, silenced the entire town (as well as taking all the color away) and sucked all the spirit out of everything to the point of making all of his victims despondent bordering on catatonic. Taken at face value, he was arguably one of the scariest villains of the series but for his anticlimactic defeat. Rainbow the Clown may not have deserved that beating -- I'm with the complainers on this one -- but Mr. Mime was another matter.

* If they were made with "sugar, spice, and everything nice" why is the green one such a bitch?

*** For the record, I think Bubbles is sugar and Blossom is everything nice.
**** You know, [[FridgeBrilliance that kinda makes sense.]] Sugar is sweet and it makes things tasty, but too much of it will be bad for your health, and if you look at Blossom throughout the series...
*** Considering Bubbles' love of animals, coloring, among other things, I think she's "everything nice".
* Do you think this show would get so many complaints of the violence being [[CrossesTheLineTwice unnecessarily over the top]] if the ones dishing out the violence weren't [[DoubleStandard girls]]? Any other action show gets praised for gratuitous violence for not being too "kiddie."
** They're little girls who routinely beat their enemies to a pulp. I think a show about little boys who routinely beat their enemies to a pulp would get even more criticism... especially if these villains were [[DoubleStandard women.]]
** Powerpuff Girls has the heroes ripping the monster's eyes out of their heads, stabbing them through the back of the throat with their own talons, and ''incinerating'' villains with heat vision. If the protagonists were boys we would have anti-violence activists ''testifying before Congress'' about how this show is warping the minds of America's youth. The fact that the heroes are cute little girls is the only thing that kept this show from being banned after three episodes.
** The gentle four-color-comic style might have something to do with it, but it's not unlikely that the censors saw [[GettingCrapPastTheRadar extra-sugary opening and then passed it.]] Probably before watching to the end of the episode to see that a main villain was a gender-ambiguous [[TheDevil Satan]].
*** Extra sugary? The opening has ''blood''!
*** Ironically, the original opening of ''Whoopass Stew'' (and yes, that was the original title of PowerpuffGirls) was significantly [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZIk_Y5T37mw less violent]].
** If it were due to a DoubleStandard of "girls can beat up anyone but boys can't," the girls wouldn't get beaten up by the villains so often, especially the Rowdyruff Boys. The stuff they put the girls through in their second appearance is just beyond disturbing. Not holding back is the only way to express girl power without {{Chickification}}.
*** The Rowdyruff Boys are antagonists. Repeated KickTheDog moments are expected and accepted. It shows how evil they are. If the Rowdyruff Boys were the ''pro''tagonists, the characters the audience is supposed to sympathize and identify with, the public reaction would have been completely different.
* Is anyone kind of bothered by the episode 'Speed Demon', where the girls fly too fast and get catapulted into the distant future, where Him has taken over the world? I understand the gist of it. This episode posits an alternate future where the girls are no longer around to defend Townsville against evil attacks. At the end, when they finally get back to their present time, they tell the professor that they can't go on a weekend vacation to the Bahamas and leave Townsville defenseless. But wait a minute. Everything they saw in that future only happened because they flew so fast that they broke the space time continuum and disappeared, not because they left Tonsville for a weekend vacation. It just seemed like the girls were being too harsh on themselves for something which happened because of a superpowered accident. Were they reckless for flying that fast in the first place? Maybe. Then again, they could hardly have known that that would happen. So what, superheroes can't go on a vacation because then they have to worry that a world ending cataclysm might happen in the TWO DAYS they're gone? Besides, in a later episode they moved to Citiesville for a few days at least, and when they returned to Townsville it was fine.
** They're five years old and overreacted. Remember how when you were little you thought your parents would throw you out of the house if they found out you broke that vase? Immediately after seeing the horrors of a Townsville without them, they panicked and swore never to leave it.
** Furthermore, It's freaking Townsville. It gets attacked by giant monsters/ super-villains every few days. Imagine what would happen when the girls leave.
** What particularly bothers me about this episode was that the villain that took over was ''Him''. Him has been stated that he only wants to [[MindScrew screw with the]] [[BreakTheCutie girl's heads]]; Mojo even calls him out on it in one of the comic books. Also, in the birthday episode, Him considered his rigged birthday gift (a magicial bull pinata) a success not because it destroyed the girls, but because they broke it and the candy will (as it is candy) cause tooth decay. Although there are times when he's gone the physical route (such as in "Meet the Beat Alls"), bottom line is he generally goes for a mental strike. Whatever changed in those fifty years the girls were gone to make him take over Townsville remains unknown.
*** He's {{Satan}} -- he enjoys causing misery and pain. If the girls aren't around, other victims are just as satisfying.
*** He did use having taken over the world to screw with their heads, and he immediately knew exactly what had happened to them, so he might have been watching when they zipped forward into the future and took over the world ''just'' to have an epic-level MindScrew ready when they popped back into the normal timestream.
**** That idea is so awesome that This Troper hereby declares it to be canon.
* What Bothers this Troper is that they flew superfast and went to the past? That doesn't actually make sense, going faster should slow time down and if you're going for the whole time travel thing, then they should go BACK in time.
* It bugs me that the Rowdyruff Boys didn't show up at all in "Powerpuff Girls Rule!!!". You can't tell me thy wouldn't like to rule the world, so why didn't they at least appear in the background of a fight scene or something?
** They don't particularly care about the world. They can already take anything they want with their superpowers. Moreover, they probably don't read newspapers, so it's quite likely that they spent the day tormenting a cat somewhere or something like that.
*** I concur. They are ChaoticEvil to ChaoticNeutral juvenile delinquents. If the Powerpuff Girls were getting beaten, they'd just as likely help the girls as attack them, because anyone strong enough to beat the Powerpuff Girls [[BloodKnight would be fun to fight.]]
** Aren't the Rowdyruff Boys, y'know, DEAD?
** [[IGotBetter They got better]].
* It bugs me that the villains only attack townsville. I mean, if they know the powerpuff girls are going to stop their plans if they know about it, and most of their plans involve world domination, why not start dominating the world anywhere else, preferably in a different country or something?
** Well, the monsters at least come there ''because'' it has superheroes-fighting the Powerpuff Girls seems to be the monster equivalent of an extreme sport. The rest of the villains either have a personal rivalry with the girls or else simply happen to be living in Townsville and don't want to move.
** The girls are safer. As shown in "Member's Only," there are other, grown up heroes. We could probably assume that many of the other heroes are a lot less [[CardboardPrison forgiving]] than the girls can be.
* Are the Powerpuff Girls not able to grow older or are they just subject to normal cartoon aging?
** [[MathematiciansAnswer Yes.]]
** I think it's just [[NotAllowedToGrowUp cartoon aging]], or even that the show takes place in a short enough period of time that they don't really age significantly. They had a birthday party once, I think (was it one of {{TheMovie}}s?), but if they were still at Pokey Oaks, it's probable that they would have been moved up to Grade 1 if it was as much as one school year from when they were first enrolled. I doubt that they would be held back in ''kindergarten'' for poor attendance, it's not like missing three class periods of Adhering Glitter To Construction Paper will mean they have to catch up in the first-grade classes. But to tell if they actually ''are'' being held back because they never age physically or mature mentally (they're pretty intelligent anyway, and don't seem to have any notable learning impediment), you'd have to look closely to see if Generic Classmates 1-15 are replaced by Generic Classmates 17-32 halfway through the series.
*** What happened to Generic Classmate 16?
**** Also held back.[[hottip:* : I was hoping you would ask that]].
* In TheMovie, Mojo creates an army of monkeys and apes that are just as advanced as he is. Yet we never see any of them except Mojo again. And while we're on the subject, Antidote X shrinks Mojo back down, but shouldn't it have also turned him back into a normal chimp?
** One of them actually does appear in an episode of the series -- a stupid episode, but it does happen. I was surprised, though... I assumed the girls killed them all. As for Mojo, I'm guessing the effects of the first blast (his super brain power) happened too long ago to be affected; there's often a short window for administering a MagicAntidote before the effects become permanent, so the same could happen with the effects of Chemical X. Mojo was just altered by it; the girls were created from it, which is why Antidote X is permanently a danger to them long after the events of the movie.
** If the girls were willing to kill all those monkeys, one wonders why they haven't killed Mojo after all their fights with him. This Troper has a theory: they used Antidote X to strip all the other monkeys of their brain-mutatey-ness. The reason it only reduced Mojo back to his puny self, rather than take away all of Chemical X's original effects, is most likely either because it had been too long (as mentioned above), or because (this troper's theory) when he injected himself with Chemical X that second time (and turned into that {{King Kong}} thing), he made it so his "default" form was the already brain-mutated one; therefore, Antidote X only reduces him back to that form. ...This troper has spent waaay too long thinking about this. [[AppliedPhlebotinum Chemical X]] does whatever the plot demands, anyway.
*** Because the girls killed the monkies in their very first battle ever and were vastly outnumbered and the proffesor's life was on the line. Mojo is special to the girls, as evil as he is they've got a cnnection, he's like a cousin to them. Remember, in the movie the girls are running off basic knowledge that seems to have huge holes in it. They see absolutely no problem in destroying Townsville during a game of tag so actually using lethal force, which they do still use during the series for non-human enemies, isn't much of a stretch. It's extremly likely that Miss Bellum took them aside and explained what would be acceptable behaviour and what their duties would be
** The monkeys might have moved out to other cities and try and take them over instead of fighting each other.
* Why is Princess sometimes seen in prison when she can just [[ScrewTheRulesIHaveMoney buy her way out]]?
** As far as {{This Troper}} can tell, that's always right after the girls have beaten her and she's been thrown in jail - i.e., just been arrested. She just hasn't paid bail yet.
** Not always; she was shown in jail along with Mojo and the Ameoba Boys in "Birthday Bash."
*** Occasionally Daddy Morbucks does get fed up and decides to teach her a lesson.
* In the episode "Something's A Ms", the fax the Mayor gives to the girls during TheBigLebowski parody scene says "Give me $100,000,000", but they all say that it's a million. Not looking for an explanation. Just complaining.
** Any monetary value larger than $100 is "lots" and does not need to be distinguished from other values in the category.
* How is it that three kindergarteners knew more about Napoleon than a super intelligent ape? Not to mention two of those kindergarteners are Bubbles and Buttercup!
** [[RuleofFunny It's funny.]]
** Why ''wouldn't'' [[CompensatingForSomething Buttercup]] know much about [[NapoleonComplex Napoleon]] (at least as compared to any other kindergartener, not necessarily compared to the super-intelligent ape)? And intelligence does not mean learnedness.
*** Plus, unlike Mojo, the girls actually go to school.
** I always figured Mojo knew the truth about Napoleon, he just preferred his version where Napoleon won. And the girls rubbed Napoleon's loss in his face to show that they'd always beat him.
* The way that they are treated compared to other {{ArtificialHuman}}s, and Mutants in general, even relatively benign ones like [[LiloAndStitch Stitch]] because they are six year old children. Makes me wonder what the government will do with a bunch of flying superhumans once they're old enough to be a "threat."
** Other superheroes are seen in the series, they'd probably be fine in the heroic tradition.
* Why did Mojo Jojo strip the Mayor of his clothes?
** It was the simple set-up for the "[[LemonyNarrator girls tell the story]]" episode. [[RuleOfFunny That's all the reason you need]].
** I recall that he was giving the mayor an extremely dubious explanation when the girls burst in. Something along the lines of, "If I want to rule Townsville, I have to dress like the leader!"
* Dude. I live in Townsville. I have yet to see evidence of even a sixteenth of the shit that goes down in this show appear.
** Blame the show's vague temporal setting. You were just born in the wrong decade. It all gets ([[TimeTravelTenseTrouble will get?]]) more interesting after they finish the highway to Citysville.
** I, Mojo Jojo, am shocked, surprised, and simply stunned that you the reader, that is to say the person looking at the words on this screen and using your (although inferior to mine) brain to process them in a way, shape, and form that you can understand.

The only part of the episode I actually remember is Bubbles racing Internet, who could run around the world in exactly seven seconds. That episode did actually happen, right? I didn't imagine it?
** No that was real. It was the episode "Members Only," where the Super Friends refused the PPG membership because they were girls. Cue the girls not only out powering the Super Friends at every turn, but then saving their butts and deciding they don't need to join the Super Friends.
** What bugs me is the seven seconds part? Is that in there for no reason at all, or is it a case of WritersCannotDoMath, where Internet is supposed to be running at the speed of light, which should be circling the Earth in one seventh of a second?

**** It was Buttercup who raced him, and his name is E-Male, not Internet. The team wasn't called the Justice Friends, it was called the Association of World Super Men (A.W.S.M.). It had Val Hallen, Tiki Torch, and Major Glory on the team, and presumably the rest of the Justice Friends, but it was never called the Justice Friends. Some of the members to talk were Big Ben from England, Ya-Man from Jamaica, Down Under Mate from Australia, and E-Male from Japan. Some in the background were Mucho Muchacho, Mushu Gai-Man, Mandingo, Space Ghost, and Birdman.

***** Um, no, [[CriticalResearchFailure it was definitely Bubbles who raced against E-Male.]]
* What was Mojo Jojo's motivation for teaching people to speak the same way he does?
** He's full of himself, that is to say that he thinks quite highly of himself, as in superfluous and way too much, and he thinks that's a correct way of speaking, and the others ways that are not his ways are incorrect, wrong, and not right.
** A judge ordered him to do it.
* We were supposed to feel sorry for poor Jojo being forgotten, then reverse that sympathy when he turned out to be "a terrible lab assistant"... but he was a chimpanzee! Who uses a non-sentient (and apparently juvenile) chimpanzee as a lab assistant?

*** They are underaged though. Send them to a rehabilitation center or wherever they usually send underaged criminals.
*** Perhaps because they were [[WhatMeasureIsANonHuman artificial?]]
* Why was "See Me, Hear Me, Gnomey" banned?
** Most likely because much like the infamous {{Pokemon}} episode ''Electric Soldier Porygon'', the episode ''See Me, Feel Me, Gnomey'' contains scenes with bright flashing lights that could cause seizures. Cartoon Network most likely knew about this, and didn't want to go through the same thing Japan went through during the infamous "Pokemon Seizure" incident.
** I heard it was due to [[WhatDoYouMeanItsNotSymbolic socialist themes.]]
* During the ImaginaryEnemy episode, one has to wonder why a kid imagined up an evil jester to keep him company? Maybe it's meant to be sorta like how Ralph Wiggum has a pyromaniacal leprechaun in his head (only not PlayedForLaughs). Sorta gives the episode some disturbing implications of how the kid is a potential CreepyChild.
** Kids tend to have over-active imaginations. It's not unusual for a child to imagine a giant fire-breathing gecko rather than a cute little bunny rabbit.
** The jester was initially merely mischievous. The kid just lost control among the way, probably because he isn't old enough to properly understand when pranks go too far.
* Who protected the Townsville before the girls were created? I know, the monsters are in there for the challenge so they probably didn't attack the city back then (wait...), but what about the likes of Mojo? Come to think, it must be a common theme for super-hero stories, so maybe there's a trope for that?
** No one did. In TheMovie, it's shown that Townsville was a hellhole before the girls were created.
* You know that episode called "Collect Her" where that [[TheSimpsons Comic Book Guy]] {{Expy}} kidnaps the girls and puts them in cardboard boxes and the citizens of Townsville have to save 'em? How come they didn't just try using their laser vision to destroy them?
** Or for that matter, can't their super strength break through ''plastic''?
** And I quote: "Looks like your power-packed punches can't punch their way out of my ''power-packages!''" I don't know where he got "Power Packages" from, but that's what was stopping them.
* Why did the Mayor flip out when the girls asked him for 2000 dollars?In an earlier episode, criminals badly disguised as the girls managed to rob the whole freaking bank.
** Because the 2000 would come from ''his'' pocket.
* In one episode (can't remember the name, sorry), after the girls fall asleep in class, Ms. Keane calls Professor Utonium in to talk about it. During the conference, the Professor points out that the girls are superheroes and saving the world is a big job, to which Ms. Keane replies that education is an even bigger job and the Professor agrees. How on Earth is teaching children a bigger job than saving the world, especially when the heroes are five years old?! Yes, the girls do need an education, but you must be kidding me! These girls put themselves at risk battling villains everyday for the lives of the citizens. They could easily just live normal lives and give up their superhero lifestyle. How can you compare teaching a class of 15 or so kids to saving the whole town?
** I think she meant education is a bigger job ''for the girls'' than saving the world.
*** That makes some sense. Do you think she may have meant juggling education and saving the world is too big a job?
** You can't. [[CaptainObvious That's the joke.]]
* Why do 12-inch-high girls need a queen-sized bed?
** Apparently, so they can all fit. The girls may only be a foot tall, but they might not be able to all fit into a normal-sized bed meant for one person.
* What grade were the girls put into when they went to Citysville? One day they're kindergarten students and they go to a new town and all of a sudden are lumped in with middle school kids.
* If you get infected with a virus that turns you into a supervillain, and then get cured, the girls will BEAT THE CRAP OUTTA YOU. [[{{Nightmare Fuel}} You know, something nice for the children...]]
** The episode Mime for a Change always bugged me for this reason, even when I was a child. The fact that the narrator sides with the girls didn't help.
*** I get the feeling that episode was deliberately playing the MoralDissonance for laughs, but yeah,w the end result comes across more as DudeNotFunny.
**** May I ask why is it considered morally dissonant and a WallBanger (the "Mime for a Change" episode)? The clown was beaten up and sent to jail because indeed he was dangerous. It's ''not'' normal that if his clothes lose their colors due to an accident, he turns bad and gains the power to paralyze everyone and everything around him. For what we know, he could have suffered something similar any later time, returning to his bad mime habits. Sitting in a black and white jail was better for him, because if he happened to become a mime while in there, he wouldn't scare any one, and his powers would be ineffective.
**** Perhaps because we had no way of knowing if that were true? The only thing shown is an innocent man mutated by an accident and fixed by the power of love. After we see that he's all right now, the girls immediately pulverize him and toss him in jail. I know that courtroom procedures are dull for a fifteen minute children's show, but his suffering came off as extreme punishment for something completely out of his control. That can work for darker shows like Batman: The Animated Series (the schizo guy who controlled/was controlled by his puppet is an example), but for something that just came down from singing "Love makes the World Go Round"? Not so much.
*** To make matters worse: all he did was make everything black and white!
**** He, um, silenced the entire town (as well as taking all the color away) and sucked all the spirit out of everything to the point of making all of his victims despondent bordering on catatonic. Taken at face value, he was arguably one of the scariest villains of the series but for his anticlimactic defeat. Rainbow the Clown may not have deserved that beating -- I'm with the complainers on this one -- but Mr. Mime was another matter.
* What kind of sick assed single male scientist decides to make little girls for himself?
** Erm, somebody who wants to be a father but isn't fortunate enough to have a wife? Unless you think every single father in the world is a lecherous pedophile.
** Someone who met them as a kid in a StableTimeLoop.
*** And suddenly it becomes creepy again. XD
* If they were made with "sugar, spice, and everything nice" why is the green one such a bitch?
** She's the one made from spice.
*** For the record, I think Bubbles is sugar and Blossom is everything nice.
**** You know, [[FridgeBrilliance that kinda makes sense.]] Sugar is sweet and it makes things tasty, but too much of it will be bad for your health, and if you look at Blossom throughout the series...
*** Considering Bubbles' love of animals, coloring, among other things, I think she's "everything nice".
* Do you think this show would get so many complaints of the violence being [[CrossesTheLineTwice unnecessarily over the top]] if the ones dishing out the violence weren't [[DoubleStandard girls]]? Any other action show gets praised for gratuitous violence for not being too "kiddie."
** They're little girls who routinely beat their enemies to a pulp. I think a show about little boys who routinely beat their enemies to a pulp would get even more criticism... especially if these villains were [[DoubleStandard women.]]
** Powerpuff Girls has the heroes ripping the monster's eyes out of their heads, stabbing them through the back of the throat with their own talons, and ''incinerating'' villains with heat vision. If the protagonists were boys we would have anti-violence activists ''testifying before Congress'' about how this show is warping the minds of America's youth. The fact that the heroes are cute little girls is the only thing that kept this show from being banned after three episodes.
** The gentle four-color-comic style might have something to do with it, but it's not unlikely that the censors saw [[GettingCrapPastTheRadar extra-sugary opening and then passed it.]] Probably before watching to the end of the episode to see that a main villain was a gender-ambiguous [[TheDevil Satan]].
*** Extra sugary? The opening has ''blood''!
*** Ironically, the original opening of ''Whoopass Stew'' (and yes, that was the original title of PowerpuffGirls) was significantly [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZIk_Y5T37mw less violent]].
** If it were due to a DoubleStandard of "girls can beat up anyone but boys can't," the girls wouldn't get beaten up by the villains so often, especially the Rowdyruff Boys. The stuff they put the girls through in their second appearance is just beyond disturbing. Not holding back is the only way to express girl power without {{Chickification}}.
*** The Rowdyruff Boys are antagonists. Repeated KickTheDog moments are expected and accepted. It shows how evil they are. If the Rowdyruff Boys were the ''pro''tagonists, the characters the audience is supposed to sympathize and identify with, the public reaction would have been completely different.
* Is anyone kind of bothered by the episode 'Speed Demon', where the girls fly too fast and get catapulted into the distant future, where Him has taken over the world? I understand the gist of it. This episode posits an alternate future where the girls are no longer around to defend Townsville against evil attacks. At the end, when they finally get back to their present time, they tell the professor that they can't go on a weekend vacation to the Bahamas and leave Townsville defenseless. But wait a minute. Everything they saw in that future only happened because they flew so fast that they broke the space time continuum and disappeared, not because they left Tonsville for a weekend vacation. It just seemed like the girls were being too harsh on themselves for something which happened because of a superpowered accident. Were they reckless for flying that fast in the first place? Maybe. Then again, they could hardly have known that that would happen. So what, superheroes can't go on a vacation because then they have to worry that a world ending cataclysm might happen in the TWO DAYS they're gone? Besides, in a later episode they moved to Citiesville for a few days at least, and when they returned to Townsville it was fine.
** They're five years old and overreacted. Remember how when you were little you thought your parents would throw you out of the house if they found out you broke that vase? Immediately after seeing the horrors of a Townsville without them, they panicked and swore never to leave it.
** Furthermore, It's freaking Townsville. It gets attacked by giant monsters/ super-villains every few days. Imagine what would happen when the girls leave.
** What particularly bothers me about this episode was that the villain that took over was ''Him''. Him has been stated that he only wants to [[MindScrew screw with the]] [[BreakTheCutie girl's heads]]; Mojo even calls him out on it in one of the comic books. Also, in the birthday episode, Him considered his rigged birthday gift (a magicial bull pinata) a success not because it destroyed the girls, but because they broke it and the candy will (as it is candy) cause tooth decay. Although there are times when he's gone the physical route (such as in "Meet the Beat Alls"), bottom line is he generally goes for a mental strike. Whatever changed in those fifty years the girls were gone to make him take over Townsville remains unknown.
*** He's {{Satan}} -- he enjoys causing misery and pain. If the girls aren't around, other victims are just as satisfying.
*** He did use having taken over the world to screw with their heads, and he immediately knew exactly what had happened to them, so he might have been watching when they zipped forward into the future and took over the world ''just'' to have an epic-level MindScrew ready when they popped back into the normal timestream.
**** That idea is so awesome that This Troper hereby declares it to be canon.
* What Bothers this Troper is that they flew superfast and went to the past? That doesn't actually make sense, going faster should slow time down and if you're going for the whole time travel thing, then they should go BACK in time.
* It bugs me that the Rowdyruff Boys didn't show up at all in "Powerpuff Girls Rule!!!". You can't tell me thy wouldn't like to rule the world, so why didn't they at least appear in the background of a fight scene or something?
** They don't particularly care about the world. They can already take anything they want with their superpowers. Moreover, they probably don't read newspapers, so it's quite likely that they spent the day tormenting a cat somewhere or something like that.
*** I concur. They are ChaoticEvil to ChaoticNeutral juvenile delinquents. If the Powerpuff Girls were getting beaten, they'd just as likely help the girls as attack them, because anyone strong enough to beat the Powerpuff Girls [[BloodKnight would be fun to fight.]]
** Aren't the Rowdyruff Boys, y'know, DEAD?
** [[IGotBetter They got better]].
* It bugs me that the villains only attack townsville. I mean, if they know the powerpuff girls are going to stop their plans if they know about it, and most of their plans involve world domination, why not start dominating the world anywhere else, preferably in a different country or something?
** Well, the monsters at least come there ''because'' it has superheroes-fighting the Powerpuff Girls seems to be the monster equivalent of an extreme sport. The rest of the villains either have a personal rivalry with the girls or else simply happen to be living in Townsville and don't want to move.
** The girls are safer. As shown in "Member's Only," there are other, grown up heroes. We could probably assume that many of the other heroes are a lot less [[CardboardPrison forgiving]] than the girls can be.
* Are the Powerpuff Girls not able to grow older or are they just subject to normal cartoon aging?
** [[MathematiciansAnswer Yes.]]
** I think it's just [[NotAllowedToGrowUp cartoon aging]], or even that the show takes place in a short enough period of time that they don't really age significantly. They had a birthday party once, I think (was it one of {{TheMovie}}s?), but if they were still at Pokey Oaks, it's probable that they would have been moved up to Grade 1 if it was as much as one school year from when they were first enrolled. I doubt that they would be held back in ''kindergarten'' for poor attendance, it's not like missing three class periods of Adhering Glitter To Construction Paper will mean they have to catch up in the first-grade classes. But to tell if they actually ''are'' being held back because they never age physically or mature mentally (they're pretty intelligent anyway, and don't seem to have any notable learning impediment), you'd have to look closely to see if Generic Classmates 1-15 are replaced by Generic Classmates 17-32 halfway through the series.
*** What happened to Generic Classmate 16?
**** Also held back.[[hottip:* : I was hoping you would ask that]].
* In TheMovie, Mojo creates an army of monkeys and apes that are just as advanced as he is. Yet we never see any of them except Mojo again. And while we're on the subject, Antidote X shrinks Mojo back down, but shouldn't it have also turned him back into a normal chimp?
** One of them actually does appear in an episode of the series -- a stupid episode, but it does happen. I was surprised, though... I assumed the girls killed them all. As for Mojo, I'm guessing the effects of the first blast (his super brain power) happened too long ago to be affected; there's often a short window for administering a MagicAntidote before the effects become permanent, so the same could happen with the effects of Chemical X. Mojo was just altered by it; the girls were created from it, which is why Antidote X is permanently a danger to them long after the events of the movie.
** If the girls were willing to kill all those monkeys, one wonders why they haven't killed Mojo after all their fights with him. This Troper has a theory: they used Antidote X to strip all the other monkeys of their brain-mutatey-ness. The reason it only reduced Mojo back to his puny self, rather than take away all of Chemical X's original effects, is most likely either because it had been too long (as mentioned above), or because (this troper's theory) when he injected himself with Chemical X that second time (and turned into that {{King Kong}} thing), he made it so his "default" form was the already brain-mutated one; therefore, Antidote X only reduces him back to that form. ...This troper has spent waaay too long thinking about this. [[AppliedPhlebotinum Chemical X]] does whatever the plot demands, anyway.
*** Because the girls killed the monkies in their very first battle ever and were vastly outnumbered and the proffesor's life was on the line. Mojo is special to the girls, as evil as he is they've got a cnnection, he's like a cousin to them. Remember, in the movie the girls are running off basic knowledge that seems to have huge holes in it. They see absolutely no problem in destroying Townsville during a game of tag so actually using lethal force, which they do still use during the series for non-human enemies, isn't much of a stretch. It's extremly likely that Miss Bellum took them aside and explained what would be acceptable behaviour and what their duties would be
** The monkeys might have moved out to other cities and try and take them over instead of fighting each other.
* Why is Princess sometimes seen in prison when she can just [[ScrewTheRulesIHaveMoney buy her way out]]?
** As far as {{This Troper}} can tell, that's always right after the girls have beaten her and she's been thrown in jail - i.e., just been arrested. She just hasn't paid bail yet.
** Not always; she was shown in jail along with Mojo and the Ameoba Boys in "Birthday Bash."
*** Occasionally Daddy Morbucks does get fed up and decides to teach her a lesson.
* In the episode "Something's A Ms", the fax the Mayor gives to the girls during TheBigLebowski parody scene says "Give me $100,000,000", but they all say that it's a million. Not looking for an explanation. Just complaining.
** Any monetary value larger than $100 is "lots" and does not need to be distinguished from other values in the category.
* How is it that three kindergarteners knew more about Napoleon than a super intelligent ape? Not to mention two of those kindergarteners are Bubbles and Buttercup!
** [[RuleofFunny It's funny.]]
** Why ''wouldn't'' [[CompensatingForSomething Buttercup]] know much about [[NapoleonComplex Napoleon]] (at least as compared to any other kindergartener, not necessarily compared to the super-intelligent ape)? And intelligence does not mean learnedness.
*** Plus, unlike Mojo, the girls actually go to school.
** I always figured Mojo knew the truth about Napoleon, he just preferred his version where Napoleon won. And the girls rubbed Napoleon's loss in his face to show that they'd always beat him.
* The way that they are treated compared to other {{ArtificialHuman}}s, and Mutants in general, even relatively benign ones like [[LiloAndStitch Stitch]] because they are six year old children. Makes me wonder what the government will do with a bunch of flying superhumans once they're old enough to be a "threat."
** Other superheroes are seen in the series, they'd probably be fine in the heroic tradition.
* Why did Mojo Jojo strip the Mayor of his clothes?
** It was the simple set-up for the "[[LemonyNarrator girls tell the story]]" episode. [[RuleOfFunny That's all the reason you need]].
** I recall that he was giving the mayor an extremely dubious explanation when the girls burst in. Something along the lines of, "If I want to rule Townsville, I have to dress like the leader!"
* Dude. I live in Townsville. I have yet to see evidence of even a sixteenth of the shit that goes down in this show appear.
** Blame the show's vague temporal setting. You were just born in the wrong decade. It all gets ([[TimeTravelTenseTrouble will get?]]) more interesting after they finish the highway to Citysville.
** I, Mojo Jojo, am shocked, surprised, and simply stunned that you the reader, that is to say the person looking at the words on this screen and using your (although inferior to mine) brain to process them in a way, shape, and form that you can understand. How can you say, state, and claim that you have never seen my work that I, Mojo Jojo, have done over the years in my attempts and tries to take over Townsville...despite my constant failure, that is to say my consistant lack of success, to those blasted Powerpuff Girls.

How can you compare teaching a class of 15 or so kids to saving the whole town?
** I think she meant education is a bigger job ''for the girls'' than saving the world.
*** That makes some sense. Do you think she may have meant juggling education and saving the world is too big a job?
** You can't. [[CaptainObvious That's the joke.]]
* Why do 12-inch-high girls need a queen-sized bed?
** Apparently, so they can all fit. The girls may only be a foot tall, but they might not be able to all fit into a normal-sized bed meant for one person.
* What grade were the girls put into when they went to Citysville? One day they're kindergarten students and they go to a new town and all of a sudden are lumped in with middle school kids.
